  • Andrenosoma corallium

    Andrenosoma corallium is a robber fly species in the family Asilidae, subfamily Laphriinae, described by Martin in 1966. Like other members of the subfamily Laphriinae, its larvae are presumed to prey on wood-boring beetle larvae, particularly those in families Buprestidae and Cerambycidae. The genus Andrenosoma reaches its greatest diversity in the Neotropics, with most North American species restricted to Texas and the western United States.
